You can put this solution on YOUR website! how far away is mars?
that probably depends on the time of year since the distance from earth to mars varies.
At its closest point, mars is 56 million kilometers from earth.
If you were traveling at 100 kmph, it would take you 56 million / 100 = 560,000 hours to get there.
The number of hours in 4 years = 365*3 + 366 = 1461 * 24 = 35064 hours divided by 4 years = 8766 hours in a year.
560,000 / 8766 = 63.88318503 years to get there.
If you were just 12 years old on the day that you started, you would be 12 + 63.88318503 years old when you got there.
That's 75.88318503 years old.
That's roughly equivalent to 75 years and 10 months and 18 days old plus a few hours.
